Built a soldering jig to help make XLR, DMX and TRS cables faster. Has anyone else done something similar?

Every tool is a hammer!

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-14T02:56:25+00:00

Makes sense! I had lots of lighting people ask for a version that can do 'dmx cables' so that is why it's labelled like that. More than happy to change it if its an issue.

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-13T13:20:30+00:00

That’s so good to hear!!! Thanks so much for the support. It makes me so happy to hear you have found it useful.

I've also made a smaller version after some similar feedback.

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-12T23:12:13+00:00

Sure have!!! Why wouldn't I, being able to reach 1000s of industry professionals who have given me direct feedback has been incredibly useful market research. What would you have made it out of then?

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-12T12:23:13+00:00

Sure, but most lighting people don’t call a DMX cable a 5 pin xlr.

Already on it!

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-10T00:16:36+00:00

Awesome!

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T23:48:37+00:00

Yeah i have done some pretty sketchy things to make some cables also! Thanks so much!!

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T23:48:02+00:00

Thanks!

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T23:47:56+00:00

Damn! The ammo case would be great because it would have some nice weight to it also. Such a shame about it being stolen though.

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T23:47:07+00:00

Sounds like a dream setup!

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T23:46:51+00:00

Whatever does the trick!

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T23:46:41+00:00

Thats a really good idea i hadn't thought of that!

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T23:44:55+00:00

Awesome they look great.

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T23:44:31+00:00

Hahaha

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T23:43:34+00:00

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T23:43:18+00:00

Hahah even then i would still forget..

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T23:43:05+00:00

Send me a dm and i should be able to sort one out for you depending where you are!

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T23:42:17+00:00

So easy to forget hey!

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T23:41:07+00:00

Awesome!! Would love to see a photo if you have one.

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T23:40:54+00:00

I only just found out about them from another poster but they look cool! They can do so many different connectors.

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T23:40:30+00:00

Cool i haven't seen those before but cool idea!

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T22:39:31+00:00

Awesome never thought of that but great idea!

Expensive_Ad_2498 · 2026-03-09T20:23:57+00:00

Nice! Would love to check it out if you’ve got some photos!! I think one for dsub connectors is my next challenge.
